Karen is the visionary and creative soul behind Urban Playground Designs. She has always had a passion for being creative and DIY projects, especially with home decor. Urban Playground is not just a small business but her dream.

It was with the birth of her son and daughter that her desire to provide for her family, while being able to be flexible in raising two children, ignited a flame so strong within her, to start a business and brand that would give her the freedom of being creative while becoming her own boss and mompreneur.

Jacob - The Woodworking Wizard

The Urban Playground workshop would not be what it is without him. Jacob loves to help pick, carry, cut and organize the wood in the workshop, as well as organize and clean all the tools and sweep up the endless amounts of saw dust. He is a BIG help and an essential part to the Urban Playground.

Andy - Workshop Manager

Andy is in charge of overseeing and managing all issues, ensuring that the Urban Playground Designs is complying with all customer requirements and that its crew is following internal policies and procedures.

Andy is also responsible for overseeing the entire Urban Playground workshop, from ensuring supplies are in stock, all tools are working properly, that the coffee pot (or sometimes wine glass) is always full...and that everything in between is functioning properly for running the Urban Playground Designs workshop.

Ava - The Painting Princess

How could Urban Playground finish all it's wooden pieces without the little soul behind the colourful, playfulness of all our designs? Ava loves holding a paintbrush in her little hand, painting to her hearts content. She also helps choose and organize all our paint and stain options.
